SD card programing -

[J.Witvliet at mindef.nl]

Just a thought,
I did some experimenting with thumbdrives and (mini/micro)-SDcards.
Most laptops do not recognize SD-drives as bootable media, but when you put them into a usb-adapter they work OK. 

Also making a card bootable on one adapter, does not garantee 
That it will be bootable in a different sort of (multi slot) usb-adapter....
